Scarcely live minutes later, the same motorist drove his car through a red traffic light and knocked down a woman pedestrian. Could the woman hold the city legally liable for the accident be cause of the officer’s blunder? “ The city is supposed to pro vide police protection,” she ar gued in a court hearing. “T h a t’s what we pay taxes for.

It is true that all members of the community are entitled to rea sonable police protection. But this is a general, not a specific, right.

Consider the problem of the person who Is an informer or a material witness in a forthcom ing trial. If he is in danger, the city is likely to be held responsi ble for his safety. “ Otherwise,” said one court, “ it might become difficult to con vince the citizen to cooperate with law enforcement officers.” In one unusual case, the family of a suicide victim tried to blame the city because the police had missed a chance to prevent the tragedy. They said officers had come out to investigate a fam ily quarrel, then left with things still unsettled. But the city was exonerated. The court said even if the officers should have stayed longer, they still could not fairly have fore seen that the man would take his own life.

Aiding in the two-point m argin for Vernonia was John Bergm an who received prizes for low net and for K P on the fourth hole. Lynn Miche- ner had an equally fine day scoring second behind Bergman for low net and getting K P on num ber five Dick Aldrich outdistanced everyone on hole num ber seven and walked off with the prize for long drive M en’s Club President De Wayne King announced that a home-and- home match has been set up with the m en’s club of G earhart. The first match w ill be played at V e r nonia and is scheduled for July I. The return match is slated for Sept. 23 at G earhart. At the M ay 12 m en’s night, Sam Beardsley 's 33 was good for low net for the 15 and under handicappers, while Lynn Michener and Elroy M iner tied with 32’s for those with 16 and over handicaps. Frank Deckebach’s tee shot on the fourth hole was close enough for a birdie and for K P honors. Nobody reached the sixth hole in regulation and so that K P prize went unclaim ed. None of the prizes went unclaim ed, however, in a recent Junior Men's Club night. Randy Roberts when the won K P on number four and tied with Scott Nance for the least putts Both Randy and Scott stroked the ball 14 times. Ole Ber- gerson was an inch short of an eagle on number eight and walked off with KP honors for that hole.
